| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Little Pills, an Army Story" by R. H. McKay is a historical memoir written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences of the author, a former Acting Assistant Surgeon in the United States Army, as he served on the frontier nearly fifty years earlier, during a time when the vast wilderness was being tamed by civilization. The narrative captures the author's observations and interactions while stationed at various military posts, including San Antonio and Fort Craig, through his lens as a medical officer amidst the complexities of army life and frontier challenges. The opening of the memoir details McKay's reflections on his motivation to write these experiences for his children, illustrating the contrast between the past and a rapidly changing contemporary world. He describes the rigorous examination he underwent to join the army, leading to his assignment in the Department of the Missouri. As he navigates through military life, he vividly depicts the structure of army society, his impressions of different officers, and the stark realities of the frontier, including encounters with civilians and Native Americans. Themes of duty, service, and the ruggedness of frontier life emerge as McKay sets the stage for the many stories and reflections to come in his narrative.
